Nine in '09

This week's sketch at The Scrappiest was perfect for some photos of my son with his birthday cake. The sketch calls for a grid of four patterned papers topped with a grid of photos. And I just happened to have four photos featuring four different birthday boy faces. Check it out.

LOVE this paper by Scrappin' Within Reach. It's called Industrial Park. Gears, plaid, and polka dots. Soft greys, bold navy, and warm mustard. I've had it in my stash for a long time, so I was very excited to finally use it. There's a fabulous gear die-cut buried beneath all those stars. Gotta love a die cut!

Ok, new favorite thing...cheap foam stamps. The big stars on my layout were stamped with a .99 cent foam stamp and some mustard ink. The stamp really soaked up the ink and gave me a great solid star. I enjoyed them so much that I went a little crazy stamping and stacking stars. I'm back to Hobby Lobby to see what other shapes they have. Oh, and to get more Staz On, too!
